Services

Over the last four years, the Directors of QLF have acknowledged the personal and practical difficulties experienced by a number of solicitors. These difficulties have come to light through the Queensland Law Society’s Professional Standards Department and Law Care.

Reports from these bodies indicate that some solicitors unfortunately continue to face health and/or personal difficulties, including serious illness of a family member etc. In consequence, these solicitors often encounter difficulties within their practices.

With the co-operation of the QLS, the Foundation has established programs to provide on the spot advice, as well as hands on, in practice, assistance to the solicitor members of QLS, free of charge.

Confidentiality is assured, with the Solicitor Assist services being provided by practicing solicitors on a Solicitor/Client basis. Other service providers (eg, accountants, practice managers, etc) similarly operate under strict confidentiality arrangements.

The Law Foundation-Queensland Trust frequently provides funding assistance for projects run by bodies other than the Queensland Law Foundation Pty Ltd, upon direct funding applications being made to the Foundation.
